Protecting GraphQL APIs from malicious queries

Starting today, Cloudflare’s API Gateway can protect GraphQL APIs against malicious requests that may cause a denial of service to the origin. In particular, API Gateway will now protect against two of the most common GraphQL abuse vectors: deeply nested queries and queries that request more information than they should.

Enhancing Mobile App Security through Sandboxing & Isolation

Security Testing is a crucial step in the application development process. So, how about we say you can have a dedicated environment to test your app for potential threats such that the attached malware cannot spread, access, or modify the rest of your system's files, resources, and settings? Pretty lucrative, right? Application Sandbox and isolation technique is the holy grail of application security.

.Zip and .Mov Top Level Domain Abuse: One Month After Being Made Public

A month ago, Google released eight new top level domains (TLD). Two of them (.zip and.mov) have been a cause for concern because they are similar to well known file extensions. Both.zip and.mov TLD are not new, as they have been available since 2014. The main concern is that anyone now can own a.zip or.mov domain and be abused for social engineering at a cheap price. Because both of these TLDs are indistinguishable from the file extensions, they can be a great bait for threat actors.

New Vulnerabilities Similar to CVE-2023-34362 Identified in MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Cloud

On June 9, 2023, Progress released a security advisory detailing newly discovered SQL injection vulnerabilities impacting the MOVEit Transfer web application and Cloud. The vulnerabilities are distinct from CVE-2023-34362, which was actively exploited by Clop Ransomware to exfiltrate data and extort compromised organizations. Although distinct, the vulnerabilities result in nearly identical unauthorized access where threat actors could modify or disclose MOVEit database content.
